Well done, criticize my English, I applaud you and offer you an A+ for showing the flaws in it, if only you could argue the same way. My unique arrogance was more of an ironic comment, rather than a serious one, to show you as nothing special, maybe my English didn't bring it out enough :icon_wink:
It is very simple, the word is used so much these days, because there are so many more players, believe me, I do not like people overusing the term, but nor do I like those who believe it belongs to an elite few. In the end the term is often used by those on who they have played with or who they have seen playing. The only way to attack their argument is to decide the environment in which they succeeded was poorer than it used to be, but saying that none of them are vets because you don't recognise them is as flawed as my English skills, tongue in cheek or not. You then could start going into what Veteran actually means...
Anyway, getting into pointlessly arguing now :icon_wink:
